Question

Still no supervision in the French and Spanish forums?

I forgot that threads are extremely short lived in this forum, and the discussion that really began within an unrelated thread, here

Pierre Courtejoie, "Shouldn't these links be removed as soon as possible?" #8, 27 Feb 2005 1:21 pm

has already gone to the Archives, where it is in danger of going to the limbus in the near future.

I still think that this is an important issue, and still wait to see any improvement in those forums showing that the messages by Pierre and myself on the subject have not fallen in a void. Although we both value and thank Neil Keller for his attempts to get some reaction in higher quarters, his attempts have unfortunately been a failure.

It is pathetic to see pages in the forums in Spanish with templates that are written in a mixture of English and a very bad Spanish. It is even more pathetic that JC stopped more than a year ago feeling authorized to introduce any non trivial change to improve this situation. The worst part is however to feel that there is no one listening, or at least willing to admit that there might be problems in those forums.

I feel very disappointed.

    Does that mean there will still be two sets of forums? Or that the other ones will move to Webx? Are you sure of your facts?

    I thought the reason for change was to merge the two sets of forums, I see little need for change apart from that, just a few tweaks.

    It will still be using WebX software no matter how it might look or feel.

    Pierre, unfortunately the signs we are receiving clearly announce a more agressive move to the look, feel and touch of the ColdFusion side than in previous attempts.

    Ah, the forum merge, I really wonder who will be the complainers... :D

    Well, I feel it is now pointless to try to introduce any improvement in the French or Spanish forums (like for example having all static text written in proper Spanish, instead of keeping the present mixture of decent Spanish, very bad Spanish, and English). I presume that the fusion of the ex Adobe and ex Macromedia forums sets will be attempted again, probably in a not very distant future, and anything can happen then.

    And I cannot forget that in the last disastrous fusion attempt, the French and the Spanish forums simply vanished, only to reappear when we returned to the old state of affairs. This doesn't make me look the future with too much optimism.
